Add an option to solve from the "Stuck Online" state, when you don't WANT to STOP the resource

In a DB2 HADR cluster been managed by TSA (SAMP) policy, somehow the hadr database resource was reporting "Stuck Online" state.

Everyghing was fine from DB2 and HADR perspective, Instace was UP, HADR was running normally, both primary and Standby DB were connected and in PEER state. Applications were connected to the database and running as well.
Also, running the monitor command manually, was reporting 1 (online).

So, there was no reason to STOP the resource to get rid of the "Stuck Online" been reported on lssam ouput. We just need a way to tell TSA:
"Hey TSA, This resouce is FINE now, start monitoring it again"

Only way to get rid of that, on this state was to hack it.
killing the IBM.GblResRMd process on the server it was reporting the "stuck online" state.

We are requesting to add an official option to kind of "reset" the rs, without stopping IT, just instruct TSA that the issue is gone, and restart monitoring it again using regular TSA commands.

Maybe a new option on resetrsrc command. . . .

    Same would be nice for the other way, when a resource is in "failed offline" state and only needs to be monitored again without to reset it.
